sunlit_musicIn Libya, Colonel Qaddafi's armed forces are using machine guns and fighter jets against peaceful pro-democracy protesters -- hundreds have already been killed.
According to Avaaz:
The United Nations Security Council and the European Union are in emergency sessions on Libya this week. If we can pressure them to agree to a no-fly zone over Libya, a freeze of Qaddafi's, his family's and his high command's assets, targeted sanctions against the regime, and international prosecution of any military officials involved in the crackdown -- this could stop airforce bombings and split Qaddafi's command structure.
We need to act now. The people of Libya are being slaughtered by government forces. Tell everyone you know and get them on board!

Thank you to all of of you who choose to help. Every bit of support counts. Let the Libyan people know that you're behind them.
